SMOOTH COLLIE CLUB OF GREAT BRITAIN
SHOW 1 - 14TH MAY 2022
ROUGH COLLIES
Class 18 Puppy Dog 4
1st Myriehewe London Calling. Impressed by this young tricolour who was full of ‘joie de vivre’ in the ring today! Clean wedge head with no flare through the cheeks. Beautiful dark eye giving a very
pleasing expression. Good front and body length all in proportion. Neat feet. Moved out well, even though he was struggling to keep all 4 feet on the ground! BPD
2nd Wicani Obsidian Dagger at Rossavon. Another fabulous tricolour youngster. Correct head, lovely long neck. Overall beautiful outline. Determined to embarrass his owner/handler today by moving vertically as well as horizontally but lovely paces between the leaps! Very well presented
Class 19 Junior Dog 2
1st Wicani Obsidian Dagger at Rossavon
2nd Alfsden He Lives In You
Beautifully presented blue merle. Good colour. Head a little shorter than (1) but well balanced wedge with correct ear and eye placements. Nice front but would prefer slightly more width. Good
length of body. Needs to mature a little more to stabilise rolling top line which slightly detracted from the overall picture on the move. Good length of stride.
Class 20 Post Graduate Dog 4 (1A)
1st Afterglow Invocation
Enchanting well presented dark sable. Very attractive, correct wedge head, ears well set and used constantly. Lovely dark eye, good head length and strong underjaw. Correct angulation throughout. Alert to his handler. Moved straight, fluently and with purpose. Pleased to subsequently award him BD and he challenged strongly for Best of Breed too. His day will come, I am sure. BD, RBOB
2nd Corydon The Grandmaster
A very pleasing sable & white male. Shorter in head than (1) but a balanced wedge and correct in profile. Neat and well positioned ears. Good front assembly. Well muscled frame. Moved very well. Well presented.
Class 21 Limit Dog 1
1st Wicani Where T’Willows Meet
Exquisitely coloured blue merle with a correct, well balanced head and sweet eye, making a very appealing expression. Correct front, deep chest, strong back and well let down hocks all contributing to a lovely outline. Excellent movement and length of stride.
Class 22 Open Dog 5 (1A)
Ingledene Fantasy Of Blu
Quality dog with well balanced, clean head, good underjaw, correctly set ears and alert expression.
Good shoulder and front. Good length of body, well sprung ribs. Correct angulation. Moved out well around the ring in harmony with his owner/handler. RBD
2nd Demelewis Truth Or Dare
Lovely clear silver blue merle dog. Clean classic head of good length, sweet eye. Ears could be a little tighter but he appeared not to want to play today so maybe that was the cause! Nice body shape . Lovely length of stride on the move.
Class 23 Veteran Dog 3 (2A)
1st Nikal It’s Gud To Be Black VW
11 year old tricolour boy who was enjoying himself today. Head a little shorter in length than ideal but nice eye and expression. Teeth good for his age. Nice deep chest. Looked in great coat condition today and moved well. Nicely presented and well handled. BVD

2nd Mejola Main Event
Very nice sable bitch puppy. Correct head and sweet expression. Good ear placement and moved very well. Very close between these two puppies but on this occasion one moved a little more freely than the other, although I’m sure they could change places another time.
Class 25 Junior Bitch 1 (1A)

1st Demelewis Double Dare
Really liked this pretty blue girl. Lovely head with a sweet expression. Correct shape and build creating super outline on the move. Moved positively and freely. Well presented.
2nd Mejola Main Attraction
Sweet head and expression on this girl. Slightly over-coated which spoiled the overall picture but moved ok.
Class 28 Veteran Bitch 6 (3A)
1st Ch. Brooklynson Jane Russell of Oakestelle
Sable & white bitch I have long admired. Well balanced head, good front and length of back. Lovely shape. Her crowning glory is her wonderful length of stride and free movement and she didn’t disappoint as she floated around the ring. Very well presented as ever. Very pleased to award her Best Bitch, Best Veteran Bitch and subsequently B0B, and BVIB. Thrilled to see this lovely girl chosen as BIS, BVIS by BIS judge, Mrs Fran Kaye.
2nd Ladnar Inkheart
Quality tricolour bitch with jet black coat, groomed to perfection. Correct head and expression.
